Gonzalez Wins a Big One Before Dinner

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Rafael Gonzalez
Rafael Gonzalez

Rafael Gonzalez limped under the gun and two players limped in behind to put action onto David Jackson in the hijack. Jackson raised to 26,000 and only Gonzalez called.

The two saw a flop of {5-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{q-Hearts} and Gonzalez checked. Jackson made a continuation-bet of 36,000 and Gonzalez check-raised to 78,500. Jackson went all in over the top and Gonzalez called.

Rafael Gonzalez: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
David Jackson: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}

Gonzalez got a pile into the middle after hitting gin on the flop while Jackson found himself needing to hit a two outer to win the pot. It never came as the turn {10-Hearts} and river {q-Clubs} completed the runout to leave Gonzalez's hand best.

Stacks were counted and Gonzalez had 240,000. Jackson covered, though he was left with just 1,000 after paying Gonzalez and he lost it on a subsequent hand to find the rail a handful of minutes before dinner.
